Wen'ipt exists to share indigenous artistry and bring awareness to the contributions native peoples had on jazz. Bringing together original compositions, cultural storytelling, and a jazz language, Wen’ipt is both a musical and communal offering—one that builds connection between Portland’s jazz scene and Indigenous presence, while opening space for reflection, learning, and celebration. Led by bari saxiphonist Orion White, Wen'ipt shares music Nez Perce, Dine, Ojibwe, Muscogee, Kaw, Abanaki, and Tlingit artists and always plays at least one tune by Portland legend Jim Pepper.
.
Catch them on Saturday, September 5th at the SoundsTruck NW Stage at Montavilla Plaza at 1 pm!
